Re: Tuftee and Hollis practiced today

Hopefully these boys are ready to go. Tuftee's replacement played pretty darn well, but it is nice to have some depth in the O-Line.

Also, hopefully Hollis can go at 100%, that pretty much gives us a 3 headed monster in the backfield (with Barnett at QB) running the football, and Woody can come in and give us some 3 to 4 yard bruiser runs.

Re: Tuftee and Hollis practiced today

I wouldn't get too excited about hearing that someone practiced on Sunday. Remember that Shontrelle "practiced" on the Sunday after his injury from the Texas game before the news came out that he was done for the season. Sunday practice often consists of simply coming in to get treatment for an injury.

Monday is usually the off-day. What matters is when someone is able to participate in the Tuesday and Wednesday contact practices.

Re: Tuftee and Hollis practiced today

We need Duck Hollis the rest of the year, his playmaking Saurday made the lose of Shontrelle less apparent.
Tuftee is a stud but honestly, who ever filled in for him, we seemed to never miss a beat, was that Gannon or Graham?? I love our depth at Oline....

I've been saying for weeks that the loss of Shontrelle was hurting us more than anyone realized. White is a big play guy, but too often goes for no or little gain. Shontrelle moves the chains and helps control the ball. Last night, Duck brought some of that shiftiness that Johnson has. White also ran with more authority than he has in a while. Great job guys!
